Georg Prieler is one of Austria's most respected Blaufränkisch producers, working out of Schützen am Gebirge in the Leithaberg DAC area west of Lake Neusiedl. Ried Pratschweingarten is a single vineyard climbing the hills directly behind Oggau, where warm breezes off the lake meet cool, limestone-driven soils — the exact combination that produces Prieler's most purist, transparent Blaufränkisch. The estate is organic, and the cellar work is famously hands-off: nothing happening today that wouldn't have happened 70 years ago, as Georg puts it. The 2022 shows fine red fruit, a hint of citrus lift, black pepper, ripe plum, and a salty Leithaberg undertone. Precise, structured, and built for the long haul.

"The 2022 Blaufränkisch Ried Pratschweingarten was picked on limestone at the top of this site. Deep purple in the glass, it promises intensity, with lovely red streaks in the blueberry fruit. The palate is dense but contained, beautifully bundled yet sinuous, with vivid, soaring, juicy freshness that comes together as beautifully full-fruited soothing elegance." —Anne Krebiehl MW

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

A classic Austrian red pairing: roast venison, duck breast, beef tartare, or a paprika-spiced goulash. Also lovely with grilled mushrooms, smoked meats, or a board of aged alpine cheeses.

Tasting Profile

Precise and structured: fine red fruit, ripe plum, black pepper, and citrus lift over a salty Leithaberg limestone undertone. Hands-off cellar work keeps the varietal cut and terroir signature transparent.
